Service is Everything Buying or selling a home is one of the biggest financial and life decisions you will make, and with that decision begins the process of getting ready to buy or sell, getting through closing, and finally moving. I am here to help make this as smooth a process as possible, and lift some of the burden from your shoulders to get everything accomplished and achieve your goals in home ownership. I believe in providing the best possible service on every aspect of your transaction, whether you are buying or selling, and moving across town, across the country, or even the world, I can help. I am committed to making your real estate experience a positive one. Expertise and Support I have a background in construction marketing as well as teaching, and the skills I gained in those positions combine well as I work with my you to find and buy just the right home. I have received certification from the Washington State Housing Finance Commission to teach the Homebuyer Classes for their House Key Program, and have regularly partnered with lenders and other professionals to teach classes for first time buyers. I also partner with a variety of resources to help get your home sold. I put my marketing expertise to work for you, make use of my resources to advertise locally, nationally, and internationally, make sure you home is priced right to sell, and negotiate with buyers' agents to get the best possible offer on your home. I can also assist in other arrangements from finding a reputable moving company, housekeeping services, and landscaping services, and more. My office and the entire Windermere network is available to ensure your transaction is handled in a sensitive, professional, and timely manner, and to make it as stress-free as is possible. About Me I have lived in this area for over 40 years and I love the Pacific Northwest. I have spent time living elsewhere but always come home here to Snohomish County. I love the recreational opportunities we have available here, as well as the ability to live in the country while still being close to the city (or vice versa!). We are blessed with natural beauty in the Puget Sound and the Cascade Mountains. There is so much to do here no matter what your interests are – from wine tasting, fine dining, movies and theater, music events, fairs, international cultural events, museums, and much, much more. I attended Shoreline Community College and also the University of Washington, and have a BA in International Studies. I love to travel and learn about the world, as well as show off my own hometown.
